Scatterbrain Podcast - UFOs, Spacetime, & Technology: The Expanded E.T. Hypothesis
Welcome to Scatterbrain Podcast - "UFOs, Spacetime, & Technology: The Expanded E.T. Hypothesis". (c) 2022 by Ian Mesplay.
Thank you for listening everyone! We will be back next week with episode #100! It's been a strange and overly-eventful last four months, but we'll be back on track and back to our usual format of music reviews and cool topics in March. It's called Scatterbrain Podcast for a reason, people. Stagnant and predictable we are not!
Note:
The sound you hear at the end of this mini-episode is the sound Sputnik 1 broadcast in low Earth orbit in 1957.
Launched by the U.S.S.R. on Oct. 4, 1957, Sputnik 1 was the first artificial satellite put into Earth orbit as part of the Soviet space program. It orbited Earth for 3 weeks before its batteries ran out.
23 inches in diameter and weighing 184 pounds, it orbited the Earth every 1 hour 36 minutes causing widespread fear within the U.S. population that the U.S. military had fallen behind in developing new technology. This turned out to be untrue, as the U.S. could have launched its own satellite one year prior, but chose not to do so for various reasons unrelated to what the Soviet Union had planned.
Rushing a response to Sputnik 1 & 2 due to public outcry, the U.S. famously had a failed launch in Jan., 1958, reported in newspapers at the time as "Ka-putnik!". While Soviet rocket failures were covered up, the U.S. broadcast the launch attempt and subsequent explosion on live T.V. to the embarrassment of the U.S. government.
Available on most platforms that support podcasts, or catch up with us via Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Professor Google can help you with that.
Every day, Stanley. You were no mere dog, and anyone who thinks Ian should "just get over it" obviously never met you.
He was a true friend to EVERY human he knew. He dominated every room he walked into with his joyous energy and overwhelming friendliness.
Not an hour goes by that I don't think about him, and the world without him in it is a lot less fun and colorful. He truly was no mere dog. He was life itself.
I love you, Bubba.
